    A PEDAGOGY OF CULTURE BASED ON CHINESE STORYTELLING TRADITIONS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Eric Todd Shepherd MA, East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Galal Walker, Advisor _______________________ Mark Bender Advisor Mari Noda Graduate Program in Dorothy Noyes East Asian Languages and Literatures Copyright by Eric Todd Shepherd 2007 ABSTRACT This dissertation is an historical ethnographic study of the Shandong kuaishu (山东快书) storytelling tradition and an ethnographic account of the folk pedagogy of Wu Yanguo, one professional practitioner of the tradition. At times, the intention is to record, describe and analyze the oral tradition of Shandong kuaishu, which has not been recorded in detail in English language scholarly literature. At other times, the purpose is to develop a pedagogical model informed by the experiences and transmission techniques of the community of study. The ultimate goal is to use the knowledge and experience gained in this study to advance our understanding of and ability to achieve advanced levels of Chinese language proficiency and cultural competence. Through a combination of the knowledge gained from written sources, participant observation, and first-hand performance of Shandong kuaishu, this dissertation shows that complex performances of segments of Chinese culture drawn from everyday life can be constructed through a regimen of performance based training. It is intended to serve as one training model that leads to the development of sophisticated cultural competence. ii Dedicated to Chih-Hsin Annie Tai iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Any dissertation is a collaborative effort.

Each story ponders on the relation of nationality and individual identity, revealing the nuanced emotional ties between them even when their divergent interests persuade individuals to perilously break from the bond. The collection also discusses the intricacy between identity migration and society assimilation against the backdrop of transformative cultural and political changes, searching for alternative interpretation of the concept of time and societal progression. These short stories depict the marginal of the marginal, with an observing, interrogating but no judging, fun but thoughtful undertone. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................................................
